Bodegas Castro Martin Albarino Family Estate Selection 2010

Product code: 11MAR1B2010

With a distinct salty minerality on the nose, and an array of pure, clean, limpid white fruit aromas. The palate almost shimmers with tang and vibrancy, and although it has a steely precision, it is balanced by fruit with a peachy pear-like quality and backed by a vivid streak of lemon and mineral acidity

Production information

Producer: Bodegas Castro Martin

The delightful Angela Martin and her husband, Andrew McCarthy, run the Castro Martin estate in Rias Baixas, on Spain's Galician coast, where production of Albarino at their bodega can be traced back to as far as 1887. Angela and Andrew have always worked ahead of the curve, creating beautiful expressive wines some five years before Rias Baixas even became a protected geographical region.

On the whole 2015 was a good year for Spain. The summer heat was offset by September rains, which lead to incredibly well-developed fruit. It was a year for both white and red grapes to perform, despite the early heat.

Tomas Cusine worked for many years at his family’s iconic estate Castell del Remei – however, in 2003 he decided to forge his own way, setting up his very own eponymous winery in Spain’s Costers del Segre.

With the Rio Olympics just around the corner, Brazil will be firmly in the limelight in 2016. To make sure that you can add some truly Brazilian flair to your wine list, we have some exciting new wines to introduce from Miolo Wine Group.
